6% growth in the market (is that S&P? Dow? everything?) does not equate to strong companies growing at 6%. Some will grow faster, some slower (or shrink). Buffett is essentially saying he things over some time frame, the good companies will have growth between 6 and 15%. Only a few really exceptional companies will beat 15%. The question is, can one carefully choose stocks that will be on the faster growth curve? Finally, is there some reason you don't believe gorillas and kings will outperform the market, in the long haul? Or that the G&K's are the really exceptional ones? Tom CF
